It’s the element within her
Something under her skin
That is shining out through the face of the girl
Two sapphires and couple of rows of pearls
It’s just a part of it
Like your fine tresses
You know what my guess is
La la la la la la la la la la la
He was a PLAYBOY
Could charm the birds right out of the trees
Now he says ‘What do I do with these?’
La la la la la la la la la la la

This love in my heart
Let no-one set asunder
Sometimes I wonder
La la la la la la la la la la la

But back in the bedroom
With her electric heater
I SAY ‘ARE YOU COLD?’
SHE SAYS ‘NO, BUT YOU ARE LA’
